Conditions specify when you want to allow or block requests.
To allow or block requests based on whether the requests appear to contain malicious scripts, create cross-site scripting match conditions. For more information, see Working with cross-site scripting match conditions.

To allow or block requests based on the country that they originate from, create geo match conditions. For more information, see Working with geographic match conditions.
To allow or block requests based on whether the requests exceed a specified length, create size constraint conditions. For more information, see Working with size constraint conditions.
To allow or block requests based on whether the requests appear to contain malicious SQL code, create SQL injection match conditions. For more information, see Working with SQL injection match conditions.
To allow or block requests based on strings that appear in the requests, create string match conditions. For more information, see Working with string match conditions.
To allow or block requests based on a regex pattern that appear in the requests, create regex match conditions. For more information, see Working with regex match conditions.
